The controversial cheeky chappy is on the comeback trial after his show Dapper Laughs: On The Pull was axed by ITV after a storm about an on-stage remark.

Dapper Laughs, an invention of performer Daniel O'Reilly, became a cult figure on social media thanks to his laddish humour, celebrity pranks, tips for picking up women and his catchphrases '#Moist' and 'She knows'.

In November last year, when ITV2 decided not to cancel On The Pull, a channel spokeswoman said: "We have given careful thought to the recent criticism of the character Dapper Laughs, which has focused on his activities outside of the ITV2 programme, whose content was carefully considered and complied.

"We have taken the decision that we will not be considering this show for a second series."
